Life can change so quickly.
You can spend years longing for a change, unhappy with your life, you hoping for a miracle, to change things, you longing for a change in work, in a relationship, lifestyle.
You go over and over thinking how to do it and when to do it, imagining how it would be. wishing that things will be different.
You try to make the best, out of a situation you not happy about.
And then life surprises you.
All of a sudden, something clicks and change starts to happen, you finally have the conviction to change, or something happens that make change happen, finally, a world of possibilities is out there for you, the outcome is never what you would expect though, it never is.
The secret is to let it go, let it be.
They say be careful about what you wish for. they are right, be very careful, because never happens as you imagine. and things don’t always come as you would hope for.
Embrace change nevertheless, change is good, gives us a challenge, and if you have faith, you might learn a thing or two.
You wish to become healthier, the process is hard, you dought yourself, you go back and forward with your decisions, until something really clicks and you do it for you, because you know, it’s the best for you.
The same with relationships.
Unhappy for years you hope for change, you hope for a better future, you wanna let go of the past, but you see yourself again doubting, you go again back and forward in your decisions, until enough is enough.
We have to reach braking point sometimes, take that leap of faith.
Then when you make your move, things start to change, don’t be afraid, don’t doubt, have perseverance,belive.
Don’t let yourself down, when things don’t turn up exactly how you hoped for, be strong, maybe things haven’t come out exactly as you wanted, but don’t be discouraged, learn with it, make your goal to work with it, never give up.
Your job, you wanna change, but don’t know how, you look for other jobs, but you can’t find any, or you scared to change, of the unknown, don’t be.
If you really wanna change, just do it, or work on accepting where you are, it all comes down to the way you feel, the way you think about it.
Whatever you do, be true to yourself, be honest in your intentions, what you want and why you want it.
Don’t delude yourself, sometimes we feel unhappy about a situation, but in reality, isn’t the situation, but the way you think about it, the way you feel, something within you isn’t being fulfilled, search within yourself for answers, don’t be afraid of digging deep, what’s really bothering you.
Sometimes we just unhappy with ourselves, missing compassion, kindness and love for ourselves.
Have a moment for yourself, seat down and let yourself feel, whatever is going on, embrace what’s happening, let your thoughts come and go, just be present, feel it, send some love to yourself, appreciate this moment, where you are, and what you are, embrace your being, all of what is. Have the courage to look within.

“To remain indifferent to the challenges we face is indefensible. If the goal is noble, whether or not it is realized within our lifetime is largely irrelevant. What we must do therefore is to strive and persevere and never give up.” – Dalai Lama
